Walmart tells
Clare plans
are delayed
By Pat Maurer
Correspondent
“Walmart won’t begin
construction in August,”
City Manager Ken Hibl
told the Commission
Monday evening.
He said he had contacted them by email to
tell them the approved site
plan was only good until
the end of September and
that if construction isn’t
underway by then, “We
will need to go through
the entire site plan approval process again.”
He also said that an extension for up to one year
could be requested.
Paul Furtaw of Bergmann, P.C. responded to
Hibl’s email, saying, “We
will be submitting a formal request for a one-year
extension of the approved
site plan. I will make sure
this request is submitted
prior to August 24.”
Hibl said infrastructure
permits had been “pulled”
for the proposed complex, but no building plan
permits have been applied
for.
In another matter at
Clare’s City Commission
meeting Monday evening,
a new Clare probationary firefighter, Lindsey
Hazen, was honored with
a life-saving pin and certificate for saving another
firefighter and co-worker’s
life. Lindsey Hazen, also
manager at Arby’s Restaurant in Clare, recently
performed CPR on Bob
Keller, who had collapsed
due to an apparent heart
attack. Bob is a firefighter/
first responder with the
Lincoln Township Fire
Department.
In a resolution, the City
Commission unanimously
voted to honor Hazen,
who performed CPR on
Keller immediately.
Keller is recovering
from wat he called the
SVT or supraventricular
tachycardia event. “It
worked out good for me
that day,” he said.
Clare Fire Chief Jim
Chapman said he was
glad to have Hazen on
the department. Lincoln
Township Fire Chief Dale
Majewski said, “These
days it is tough recruiting
firefighters. Lindsey is a
great one.”
Other business at the
brief meeting included:
*A report from Hibl
that the Crowd Funding
Event to raise $25,000
for the Depot, making it
possible to get a matching
$25,000 grant, is now at
a total of $20,410. “We
still need to raise about
$4,800.00,” he said.
*The Commission also
approved the recognition
of former Police Department Administrator John
Pedjac for his 13 years
of service to the department. Pedjac was not at
the meeting to receive his
framed resolution.
*Treasurer Steven
Kingsbury gave a brief
report on the process of
learning the new reporting required for Personal
Property Tax Reform and
outlined the recent planning session on this year’s
audit.
*The City approved
bills totaling $194,615.70.
Lifesaver honored by City
Clare Firefighter Lindsey Hazen, also manager at Arby’s
Restaurant in Clare, recently performed CPR on Lincoln
Township Firefighter and co-workerBob Keller, who had
collapsed due to an apparent heart attack.
She was honored Monday evening by the City. Shown
here are Lincoln Fire Chief Dale Majewski, Keller, Hazen,
Mayor Pat Humphrey and Clare Fire Chief Jim Chapman
at the Clare City Commission Monday evening. Chapman
said she is a probationary firefighter and a great addition
to the department.

Resident shoots home invasion suspect
By Pat Maurer
Correspondent
Just after midnight
Thursday morning
Clare County Dispatch
received a call from
a Lincoln Township
resident reporting that a
man had broken into his
home on South Old State
Avenue claiming to have
“just killed a cop down
the road,” according
to a release from Clare
County Sheriff John Wilson Thursday morning.
Wilson said that when
deputies arrived and
entered the residence the
suspect ran, breaking
into a bedroom occupied by a resident of the
home. The resident in
the room fired a gun at
the suspect, hitting him.
The man was apprehended by officers and
transported to MidMichigan Medical Center –
Clare for treatment of a
gunshot wound.
No one else was injured in the home, which
was in the 2000 block of
Old State Avenue.
The claim that the
suspect had shot a police
officer was not true the
Sheriff said. “He didn’t
shoot anyone.”

said the suspect was a

CCTC millage passes, Martin to face Mayfield
By Pat Maurer
Correspondent
With just over 19
percent of Clare County’s
23,093 registered voters
going to the polls for the
Primary Election Tuesday,
61 percent voted for .3
mils for the Clare County
Transit to fill the 2016
gap in the former renewal
of the millage. The vote
was 2,354 to 1,500. The
approval will allow collection of the millage for this
year, an oversight in the
August, 2015 ballot. The
renewal for 2017 through
2022 was approved last
year overwhelmingly.
Of the candidates
looking for slots on the
November ballot, Deputy
Clerk Lori Martin was the
GOP pick to face Clerk/
Register of Deeds Pamela
Mayfield (D) on November 8.
Martin bested chal-
lenger Kimberly Davis
with nearly 62 percent of
the Primary vote, 1,699
for Davis’s 38 percent and
1,047 votes Tuesday.
4,473 ballots were
cast in the election out of
23,093 registered voters.
Mayfield has been with
the Clare County Clerk’s
office since 2001. She
was a Deputy Clerk and
was first elected at Clerk/
Register of Deeds in 2008.
She is running for her
third term in office.
Martin is currently
the Clare County Deputy
Clerk and works in the
Vital Records and Elections Department of the
County Clerk’s office. She
has been with the Clerk’s
office since July, 2013.
The Clare County
Clerk/Register of Deeds
oversees the 55th Circuit

of Deeds, Vital Records,
Elections, and Accounting
Lori Martin
Pam Mayfield
Department.
In the race for a single
seat on the Clare County
Road Commission,
Primary winners Timothy Haskin (R) and Mark
Lightfoot (D) will be on
the November ballot trying to fill the seat being
vacated by Julie Lightfoot,
who was appointed when
Eddy Garver resigned.
Haskin had 56.6 percent
of the vote in Tuesday’s
election, besting Republican Rickey Craven 1,533
to 1,165.
On the Democratic side
of the ballot, Lightfoot
collected over 56 percent,
535 votes to challenger
Don Kolander’s 411 total.
Road Commissioners Richard Haynak and
Michael Duggan’s terms
do not expire this year.
The seat of Clare
County Sheriff is also up
for grabs this November.
Incumbent Sheriff
John Wilson (R), who
was unopposed Tuesday,
will be facing a challenge
from former Undersheriff

unopposed on the Democratic side of the Primary
ballot.
With 64 percent of
the votes, Sandra Bristol
bested challenger Rick LaBoda for the Clare County
Commission District 5
Democratic slot on the
November ballot. Bristol
had 57 votes to LaBoda’s
32.
Bristol will fill the seat
of Don David who is not
running for reelection.

face a challenge Tuesday
for her District 2 seat
Tuesday, but she will face
Democrat Patrick Uhrig
on the November ballot.

votes in the Republican
Primary, while Uhrig, also
unopposed, had 135 votes
on the Democratic side.

(R) are all unopposed for
re-election in November.

Bud & Marion Palmateer Celebrating 50 Years
Bud & Marion (McAlpine) Palmateer are
celebrating 50 years together! They were
married at Trinity Missionary Church in Yale,
MI on August 19, 1966.
The couple was born and raised in Yale
where they both graduated high school. Bud
attended Eastern Michigan University and
taught 5th grade for Yale Public Schools at
Avoca Elementary for a few years. Shortly
thereafter, he co-founded and operated a very
successful business, B&L Masonry, working
throughout the thumb area for many years.
Marion oversaw bookkeeping duties for the
business and cared for the children and
household. In the early 80s, Bud took a position with Pioneer State Mutual Insurance and
the family moved to Clare, MI. While there, they met many new and dear friends and often
enjoyed the company of their church family at Brown’s Corners United Brethren Church.
Both Bud & Marion are enjoying retirement, currently living in Yale as they have for several
years now. They also look forward to attending their grandchildren’s sporting and
extracurricular events whenever they’re able. Marion is caring for her mother but takes a
little time away now and then to enjoy short excursions with life-long girlfriends. Bud enjoys
attending high school basketball games to cheer for the Yale Bulldogs and serves on the
Board of Directors at Trinity Missionary Church where he also sings in the choir.
Their golden anniversary will be celebrated later this summer alongside their children: Bill
and Karen Palmateer (Atlanta, GA), Mary and Jim Standerfer (Elk Rapids, MI), Liz and
Brock Peters (Olivet, MI) and their grandchildren: Adam and Luke Palmateer, Sydney and
Sophie Standerfer and Abbey, Taylor, Emily, and Kendall Peters. Family and friends are
encouraged to send congratulations to 8866 Bricker Road, Greenwood, MI 48006, or post
greetings to the “Bud & Marion Palmateer Celebrating 50 Years” Facebook page.

Carriage House Inn restored, open for business
By Pat Maurer
Correspondent
A landmark in Harrison, the Carriage House
Inn is once again open for
business after being closed
for eleven years thanks to
a local couple that took on
the daunting task.
The Inn, which reopened July 15, is located
on what has been known
for years as “Heritage
Hill,” and has been closed
since 2005, with former
Innkeeper Angela Kellogg,
who came to the Inn in
1994, staying on to maintain the complex.
This spring, the present
innkeepers Vivian and
Ernie Lane moved in, just
while they were looking
for a new home. Then they
decided to take over the
massive job to restore the
Inn. They have spent many
months cleaning, decorating, redecorating and
re-landscaping the gardens
and property to its former
pristine appearance. The
property includes 137
acres, all but 10 acres
wooded, on the southeast
side of Budd Lake.
Ernie credits Vivian
with much of efforts to
restore the historic old
buildings and grounds.
“She works from daylight
to dark, seven days a
week,” he said.
She has the experience
to make it work. Vivian (formerly Blackburn)
and her former husband
Phil were the owners of
Sunset Shores Cottages
on Stevenson Lake south
of Clare for many years.
After Phil died about ten
years ago, Vivian continued to operate the business
on her own, specializing
in crafters’ and artists’
retreats.
Ernie and his wife Charlene and Vivian and Phil
were great friends for 40
years. After Ernie lost his
wife two years ago, Ernie
and Vivian got together
again and married just a
year ago.
Vivian is originally
from Detroit, but has lived
in Clare for the last 45
years. Ernie is originally
from Flint, but has lived
in 17 states and been a
business owner dealing in
carpets and then drywall.
He said his family had a
cottage in the area since
The Carriage House has seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms and is filled with beautiful antiques.
The Fireplace Suites features three bedrooms, two baths and a library.
1953. He moved to the
Clare area in 1964 was a
business owner here and
lived here for many years.
He also lived in Florida for
20 years. “After 40 years,
I moved back in 2014,” he
said.
There are three residential buildings on the Carriage House Inn property.
The third is a house for the
caretaker/manager, but is
still being renovated, so
Vivian and Ernie live in
the Carriage House.
“The Inn is ideal for
crafting and other artistic
retreats,” Vivian said. It
is also a bed and Breakfast and has hosted many
weddings and other special
events. “Luncheons were,
and once again are very
welcome at the Inn,” she
added.
The Carriage House can
host up to 25 people and
the Fireplace Suites up to
ten more. The Carriage
House has seven bedrooms
each with a private bathroom and even two more
bathrooms on the first
floor. The Fireplace suites
has three bedrooms, two
baths and a library. The
Carriage House also has a
20 by 40 foot deck overlooking Budd Lake. The
rooms include Paraschiva,
Maggie Mae, Helen
Louise and the Theodore
Madison.
Ernie said the Inn has
an interesting history. The
south wing of the facility
was built in stages over
a period of many years
beginning in, or before
1934 when the old lakeside home was constructed
as a two-car garage. The
old home lakeside was
the retirement home for
Mr. and Mrs. McKinley
Browne and the quarters
for a private business.
The history of the Inn
says, “In 1948 the second
portion of that building was completed and
contains a fireplace in the
receiving room that was
once used for cooking
and heating. The ‘North
Wing,” was built in 1964
as was the original carriage
house barn. That building is now known as the
Fireplace Suites.
The property, now
owned by Michael Schaffer, who lives on the East
Coast, was purchased by
a man named McKenna
and John Mlinarcik in late
1987 from Mr. and Mrs.
Browne.
The old carriage house
barn was renovated and
opened in July of 1994 as
the Carriage House Inn,
Country Side.
Filled with many more
than 100 year old fur-
nishings, the first floor
includes a reception area
and formerly a gift shop,
the kitchen and manager’s quarters and a Great
Room. The soda counter
and reception desk came
from an old Knapp depart-
ment store in Bay City, the
windows separating the
kitchen and reception area
are from an old Central
Michigan University building and one of the guest
bedrooms contains a more
than 100-year-old “bungle
bed,” Ernie said, made
with a separating panel for
young married couples or
children of different sexes.
Many of the beautiful
antique furnishings were
found for the Inn by the
Brownes, Vivian added,
and more added later by
Connie and John Mlinarcik. The building if full of
them.
Located at 1515 Grant
Avenue in Harrison, The
Inn is just 900 feet north
of Mostetler Road and
just east of Old U.S. 127.
It is open year so you can
stop in for a look around
anytime. For a truly unique
experience give them a
call at 989-368-1052.

Evart Products for 20 years
before her retirement. She
moved to the Farwell area
over 55 years ago. The
natural beauty of Farwell,
especially the woods and
lakes, made her so happy
that she wouldn’t consider living anywhere else.
Dorothy enjoyed reading,
doing crossword puzzles
and tending to her flowerbeds. But most of all she
loved spending time with
her family. Her grandchildren were everything to
her. Dorothy was so cherished and will be missed
dearly.
Dorothy is survived
by her children; Thomas,
Douglas and Rebecca
Hall, grandchildren; Tina
(Allen) Derusha, Rachelle
(Jonathan) Zorne, Alma
Evangeline “Eva” Marie Badgero
Hall and Morgan Hall,
great-grandchild; Dorian
Zorne and several nieces
and nephews. Besides
her parents, Dorothy was
preceded in death by her
husband; Kenneth in 2009,
sister; Justine (Al) Hammon, and brother; Robert
(Joan) Hoydic.
In keeping with Dorothy’s wishes, cremation
has taken place and no
services are planned at
this time. Arrangements
have been entrusted with

Ellis’s awarded Spirit of LMHA
21 years ago, a group of
individuals met to discuss
creating a fun, family centered horse show circuit.
They called it the Lower
Michigan Horse Association. The mission, as
visualized by that group, is
Remembering Keith David Knox
Words are not enough--but words are all I have
Two years have passed--the missing you remains...

There is no death -- only a change of worlds
and my love for you is forever--Sandy

to support family-oriented
activities in the equine
area. They set goals to
support that mission.
Those goals were:
Promote interest in all
breeds of horses
To promote horse show
activities
Encourage good sportsmanship
Have high ethical standards among exhibitors
Offer something to all
LMHA members and the
family
This year, the group
discussed that their
awards are based solely
on performance in the ring
and that their goals are
more encompassing and
go beyond excelling in the
show-pen. So, for the first
time, they are presenting
an award we called, the
“Spirit of LMHA Award”.

Bits & Pieces
Pat Maurer, Review Correspondent
Just can’t imagine
a life without pets
I must have been a frog,
or maybe a moose in my
prior life. For some reason,
now that I am a human
being (sometimes my wife
things otherwise) animals
are indeed a man’s best
friend, or at least mine.
When I was a young
lad I confided in my loyal
German Shepherd. That
dog knew all my secrets,
my plans for life, and what
I received on yesterday’s
homework assignment. No
one else knew, but that dog,
my very best friend and
confident at the time, was
closer to me than anyone
else.
Since then I have always
been around a myriad of
pets whether it be dogs and
cats, or goats and reptiles.
I or my family have had
them all. Recently my wife
brought home two kittens.
They were found wandering around an abandoned
house. The mechanic shop
next door coaxed her in to
taking them. She couldn’t
refuse.
Mind you we already
had three dogs and two cats.
A month ago one of the
kittens gave birth two three
kittens. What a surprise that
was. Now the second stray
cat is also pregnant. Just our
luck. We try to do a good
deed by taking in two strays
only to now learn they were
both pregnant. No wonder
the previous owners left
them behind.
A few years ago my
ex-wife was forced to stop
on her drive home. In the
Summer is slipping away!
middle of the road was what
she thought was a domestic
pet pig. For some reason
she decided to get out of her
car, grab the pig, and toss it
in the rear seat and bring it
home.
For a couple of days she
let it roam the house by day,
and sleep in the garage at
night. Our pet dog at the
time was not too hospitable
to the pig, and vice versa.
Soon the stench from the
pig was overwhelming. I
demanded she find the pig a
new home. Later she drove
it to a pig farm where the
owner declared “this is not
a domesticated pig, lady.”
She was told Porky the Pig
was actually a wild feral
piglet. Just our luck, at least
the pig wasn’t pregnant.
Did I say animals are
attracted to me? As I’m typing this column a cat is lying in my lap and another is
laying on my desk in front
of the computer screen.
That’s great but it’s not so
fun when you have a six
or was it eight foot water
moccasin knocking at your
door trying to get in. Just
my luck.
I’m not making this
up. A few years back we
were experiencing one of
Florida’s daily thunderstorms when lo and behold I
hear this rap, rap, rap noise
coming from the living
room sliding glass door. I
go to find out the source of
the commotion only to see
this long serpent beating its
head against the glass.
Now not one to be
especially afraid of snakes,
this one had put the fear
of God in my soul. It kept
beating on the glass and no
matter what I did to shoo
it away, it wouldn’t stop. I
beat back with a broom, I
went outside in the pouring
down rain and threw rocks
at it, and I approached with
a shovel ready to cut it in to
pieces, but when it turned
and showed it fangs I decided the shovel was not a
good idea.
So I went back in the
house and prayed the evil
creature would not break
through the glass. It didn’t
and eventually slithered
away.
My life has been filled
with animal encounters
of one type or another. I
have been chased by a Gila
Monster and swam with
manatees. I have endured
an elephant charging my
jeep and alligators sunning
my backyard.
I always thought God
put me on this earth to be a
journalist, but now as I recall my life, I was probably
better suited as a zookeeper.
Animals have been a major
part of my existence and
you know what? I wouldn’t
have it any other way.
Parents who host, lose the most
By Goldie Wood, Prevention & Outreach Manager, Ten 16 Recovery Network
Oh man, this summer is
flying by!
Here it is the end of
the first week of August
already and you know
that summer “to do” list
we had? Well we must
have lost it, because other
than building the deck for
our camper I can’t think
of much we have accomplished so far…
And it’s HOT! I was
hoping with the onset
of August we might get
a little relief from our
summer heat wave, but it
seems not to be happening.
Today the thermometer
has been sticking pretty
close to 87 degrees and
the humidity once again is
extremely high.
I have been trying to get
a little sun each day for
the vitamin D, but I can’t
stand to be out there in it
for more than 10 minutes,
and once again our yard is
“feeling the burn.” It’s getting a tan – turning yellow!
Well despite the
temperatures, I still love
summer, and guess what,
it’s slipping away! According to the Maurer calendar,
we only have about four
weeks of it left.
Now the Maurer calendar isn’t quite the same as
the ones we hang up on the
wall, but any way you look
at it, doesn’t the season
really start on Memorial
weekend and end on Labor
Day?
Nice weather after that
holiday is a real bonus. Before we know it the snow,
that four letter word, will
be falling again!
And school around here
starts even sooner. Three
weeks from Monday, the
granddaughters, Alea and
Alison will both be in high
school, Alea for her senior
year and Alison as a freshman.
I know they have
already started their school
clothes shopping for this
year…saw it on Facebook.
I used to go along, but
don’t think I could keep up
with them anymore.
Back to summer. We
lead such busy lives that
this special time is over almost before it gets started.
No wonder we don’t get
much done, every weekend
seems to be full. One of
the ways we cope with this
busy schedule of ours is to
make lists. Well actually
I make the lists. Jack just
grumbles about finding
the time to do his outdoor
stuff.
I make LISTS! It is a
compulsion. I have a list
lying here by the computer
with the things I need to
get done, a list of the
articles I have to write for
this week and this column
of course. That one I follow pretty good. This week
I got all but two articles
done and I am working on
the column right now.
It’s the other lists I have
problems with. I have
lists of things I need to do
today, things I need to do
when I get a little extra
time (like finish granddaughter Kristina’s quilt),
and things I would like to
do “sometime.”
Of course it helps to be
organized and we all know
that isn’t one of my special
talents – sometimes I lose
things, especially my lists!
An example? I have no
idea where our summer “to
do” list got stashed…
One year I attempted to
use a fancy organizer…you
know one with a day-today calendar, lots of extra
pages, and even an address
book. I’ve had it for about
ten years now, and still
forget to use it for much. It
does make a good address
book though!
Post-it notes work better
for me. I schedule interviews or appointments,
write it on one and stick
it to the top of the computer screen. Sometimes I
even remember to look at
them…
Other places don’t work
quite as well. I’ve written
notes at the office, stuck
them in my purse and
never found them again. I
even bought a bigger purse
while we were up at the
camper last weekend. It
has room for my camera
and pad of paper, and for
all my “stuff,” six outside
pockets and three more
inside.
Now I can’t find anything.
Anyway for a few more
weeks, it is still summer
out there. It’s a bit too
warm, but still sunny and
beautiful outside nearly
every day, there’s a abundance of fresh stuff to eat
from the gardens and at
least 40 more days until
the trees are really turning
again.
We are planning at least
two more weekends up at
the camper by Labor Day
and maybe a few more in
September.
Forget the lists. Life
can’t get any better than
that!
Proud to be a Pioneer

Addiction stigma
A major challenge for
those who have an addiction to drugs or alcohol
is facing and overcoming
stigma. Stigmas are imposed by society, communities, friends and family
members and can cause
major discrimination and
hurt. Addiction is a disease
that can be treated with
appropriate medical intervention. However, many
people believe that addiction is a character flaw or
a weakness in a person.
They may believe that
the alcoholic simply can’t
hold their booze. Perhaps
they think that the marijuana smoker just needs to
stop. And they are likely
to believe the person
struggling with methamphetamine abuse should
just smash their pipe and
get over it. Unfortunately,
it is not so easy to overcome addiction. There are
many factors as to why a
person continues to use a
drug despite the negative
consequences.
We “learn” the stigma
of addiction early in life.
We hear its echoes in our
families, our
schools, our communities, the language we use
when we talk about people
with addictions,
and the popular media.
And many of us continue to hold it in some
forgotten pocket of our
belief systems long after
we encounter undeniable scientific proof and
flesh-and-blood human
evidence that addiction is
a medical condition, and
that people with addictions have the full range of
human qualities.
Being alone could
be the worst possible
scenario for those suffering from drug addiction.
Without any outside help,
these individuals remain
chained to their environment, which unfortunately
makes it difficult for them
to resist temptation. By
working together, controlled substance abusers
can find the path to sobriety.
Regardless of what you
believe about addiction,
whether the disease is a
“choice,” or not, you can

still become the catalyst
of change if you’re open
enough to understand the
problem for what it really
is: 90% of all people with
substance use disorders go
without treatment.
You may not think it’s
your position, or concern,
to rally yourself to the
plight of addiction and
the effects it has on the
people suffering from
it– but ultimately their
suffering becomes your
own. When we are united
against an affront which
would have us all at the
mercy of a compulsive
disorder we are able to
render aid when needed,
protect ourselves, and help
change the landscape to
become more effective so
the brunt of burden does
not weigh so heavily on
our shoulders.
Think of the impact of
drugs on underprivileged
communities. It’s not
enough that your neighborhood doesn’t have
enough illicit drug activity
that is noticed, what is
of concern is one, your
community does suffer
from an unseen threat of
addiction, and two, those
communities outwardly
suffering separate the
lives of those who live
in it.

we can stop the momentum and destruction of
addictive behavior, while

Clare Public Schools
will start the 2016-2017
school year on Monday,
August 29th and end the
school year on Monday,
June 5th, 2017. We have
received a three-year
waiver from the Michigan
Department of Education
to start school prior to
Labor Day beginning with
the 2016-2017 school year,
along with all of the other
public schools in the ClareGladwin RESD. More
than 230 of the 540 public
school districts in the State
are moving to a pre-Labor
Day start for next year.
The Legislature recently
passed a new law requiring
180 days of school per year
starting with the 20162017 school year. This
adds 5 school days to our
traditional calendar. If we
started school after Labor
Day, we would not get out
of school for the summer
until June 9th, and that is
assuming that we would
not have to add any days
to the end of the year for
excessive snow days.
In 2006, the Legislature
passed a law prohibiting
school from starting before
Labor Day as an attempt to
support tourism. However,
what we have found is that
most families are home
and are ready for school
to start in mid-August because our dual enrollment
students have started their
fall college classes and fall
sports and band are already
practicing. Most of our
students are more eager for
school to start in August
than they would be to continue well into June.
Clare Public Schools
will start school with a
half-day session on Monday, August 29th. Do not
worry if you have made
family vacation plans
during the last week of
August. Enjoy your family
time. Keep in mind that
our pre-Labor Day start
calendar has been approved by the MDE for the
next three years, so please
plan accordingly.
The 2016-2017 school
year will end with a halfday session on Monday,
June 5, 2017. Christmas
Break will take place
from Friday, December
23rd through Monday,
January 2nd, with students returning January
3, 2017. Spring Break is
March 27-31.
Also this school year
we will be implementing
a series of half-days. Students are released at 11:39
a.m. on these days, but
your teachers and district
staff will remain hard at
work on district and grade
level curriculum, assessments, interpreting data,
and planning for your kids’
education. We’ll use this
time to keep making Clare
Public Schools THE Place
to Be!
A copy of the new
calendar is published in
this edition of the newspaper. You can also find
it online at www.clare.
k12.mi.us. It is the first
listed announcement on the
district homepage.
Thank you for your
patience, cooperation, and
support regarding these
changes for our public
schools. Clare is a great
place to live and learn!

#226D16 Jack is a terrier
mix who came in as a stray
and is now ready for adoption. He is medium in size,
weighing about 35 lbs the day
he came in and seems to be
an all-around nice dog! He
still needs to be neutered, and
whoever does adoption can
have that done at the clinic
of their choice and have part
of the adoption fee refunded!
Come see Jack at our location

Kittens!
We still have plenty of
kittens left! At least two of
them are white and yellow
like 034K16 and his littermate
035K16. They are healthy and
playful, and if you can’t come
to the animal shelter to see
them play in the kitten room,
we will have a selection of
kittens at our Saturday off-site
adoption day at Family Farm
and Home in Clare on Saturday Aug 6 from 11 am to

it cold or at least cooler.
But, how is cold made?
How are objects or spaces
cooled down?
As it turns out to “make
cold” is quite difficult and
it is oxy-moronic. Cold
is defined as the lack or
removal of heat. The problem is the laws of physics
have proven that, while in
use, every household appliance produces heat as a
by-product. (Efficiency is a
measure of how much heat
will be generated. Unfortunately, most appliances
are quite wasteful, which
means they generate a lot
of wasted heat.) So how
do you remove something,
when the process intended
to remove it is generating
the exact stuff that you are
trying to remove?
To generate heat is easy,
rub your hands together
or burn anything. But, to
generate cold is difficult.
In addition, heat is energy;
it cannot be created or
destroyed. It must go
somewhere. It gets transfered, from hot to cold.
For example, when you
put ice in your drink, the
drink cools down but the
ice heats up. The beverage
losses energy, while the ice
gains energy.
Ice is especially good
because it must melt,
before it will heat up. The
melting of ice requires
huge amounts of heat
energy, therefore keeping your drink cold for a
long time. And we love
ice in the summer time.
Ice can absorb a lot heat
because it has had a lot of
heat removed from it. It
was frozen. Which brings
us back, how was the heat
removed from the warm,
liquid water to make it into
a cold solid?
The natural world has
all kinds of heat transfers
you feel good.
3. You should always
thank Veterans and listen
to their stories. It is great
to be an American.
4. Make sure your voice
is heard and you exercise
your rights as Americans.
5. How to make change!
( working foodstand and
milk barn.)
6. Clean up after yourself
and others if necessary.
7. Sometimes you step in
it....
8. Be genuinely happy
when someone does well.
9. Strive to be better.
10. Choose kind.
the safety and dignity
of your daughters (boys
in the girls bathrooms/
locker-rooms because they
felt they were girls. What a
load!) You are a breath of
fresh-air this day and age.
A lot of children are being
raised by TV and games
on phones. It is no wonder
that they are more than a
little confused.
Proper leadership does
not have to use bully tactics or intimidation to get
people to do right by others. These practices were
not part of our nation’s
founding. 250 years before
that founding, leaders had
everyone believing that the
world was flat.
Respect for authority
and faith in God were primary in our schools when
this nation began. In my
school career of 12 years,
I never once saw a fight
on the school grounds.
In the late 60’s “Values
CLUB
DO
LLAR
Clarification” was placed
in the education system,
God removed, and parents
kicked to the curb. Now
you have major bullying
and killings in schools.
This is progress?
Angela, when I was in
school, we were taught
to respect other’s rights
and to be responsible for
our own actions. Now
it’s everyone else’s fault.
We were also taught to
gather facts and to think
for ourselves. Now, after
being educated we are
being told by elected officials that only they know
what is best for us and our
children. Hogwash!
Truth cannot be hidden
forever. Our nation has
been accepting likes as a
fashion statement for long
enough. Thank you for
taking a stand.
With all due respect,
Doris Weakland

Dear Editor,
My name is Gina Forster
and I live in Harrison. My
youngest two children are
15 and 11 and members
of the Hill Top 4H Club.
I was very upset to hear
that the Clare County
Board of Commissioners
is considering eliminating
the funding for Michigan
State University Extension and 4H. I hope they
will reconsider and find a
way to fund this program.
With the Clare County Fair
just over, I sat down and
reflected on some of the
valuable lessons 4H has
taught my children:
1. You don›t always
win.
2. Helping others makes
Dear Editor,
I would like to first
thank Mr. Wilcox for
the platform that allows
people to speak their
minds. This is a great privilege that not all nations
have. Under our beloved
Constitution, we all have
freedom of speech. Note:
If our people allow our
freedoms in this republic
(with the “rule of law”) to
slip away then we all be
victims of BULLYING, in
capital letters.
Upon moving from the
south, to Michigan, I was
made fun of for my homemade dresses and for
the words I used and my
accent. Big deal! I laughed
and went on and suffered
no harm. This made me
strong, not a wimp and a
victim.
Angela Isaac – young
woman, young wife,
young mother, I have a
few comments for you.
Put your seatbelt on.
There is not a wild animal out there that will not
put up a valiant fight for
their off-spring. Everyone
knows it is not wise to
come between a mother
bear and her cubs. Even
the gentle mourning-dove
will put a dramatic demonstration to keep other
creatures (including us)
away from their young.
Angela, hold your head
high for standing up for
O
Upset over Commission
decision to eliminate MSU
within its daily and annual cycles, but we are not
talking about those. How
do humans make cold?
Refrigeration.
Refrigeration is a complex series of pumps that
expand and compress a gas
(Freon), that can remove
heat from one side of the
appliance and transfer
it to the other side. All
refrigerators, freezers,&
air-conditioners blow cold
air in one direction and
hot air in the other. They
remove heat from the food,
drink, or the room and put
it someplace else. The fact
is that significantly more
heat is blown out than is
actually removed for the
contents, due to the fact
all refrigeration has a low
efficiency.
Point being, making cold is complex and
wasteful. It is best not to
generate heat energy in the
first place, that way you
do not have to remove it.
Turn off lights and large
electronics, unplug unused
items, cook outside, or use
the microwave. Also remember to take advantage
of the natural daily cycles
(See Sleeping through the
Heat Without AC.)
There is your summer
time science lesson on
Making Cold.

World-class Cancer Care in Mt. Pleasant
at McLaren Central Michigan
When you’re facing a cancer diagnosis, the
last thing you want to do is travel to an
unfamiliar city for treatments, but you are
desperate for the best treatment money can
buy. For Bill Strickler, a former smoker who’d
been a non-smoker for 30 years, the diagnosis
from a CT scan follow-up required surgery
which he had done at the Mayo Clinic in
Rochester, Minnesota last year. During a
discussion with his Mayo Clinic oncologist,
Bill’s oncologist knew that McLaren Center
Michigan has a Karmanos Cancer Center. And
Bill knew it was just a few miles from home.
The Karmanos Cancer Institute is one of only
45 National Cancer Institute-designated
comprehensive cancer centers in the United
States, and the Karmanos Cancer Institute at
McLaren Central Michigan, Morey Cancer
Center in Mt. Pleasant received a Silver Level
Commission on Cancer accredited program.
Fewer than 30 percent of U.S. hospitals receive
this level of accreditation.
Bill’s oncologist from the Mayo Clinic recommended that he stay there for his treatment
because Karmanos is considered one of the
highest ranking cancer institutes in the
country. Bill took that recommendation and
received his treatments at the Karmanos
Cancer Institute at McLaren Central Michigan,
Morey Cancer Center. The five weeks of
treatments included to sessions of chemotherapy and 28 radiation treatments.
During that time, Bill became
very attached, personally
and professionally to
Karmanos and its staff.
The highly trained people who care for
cancer patients every day at Karmanos
make a difference in people’s lives. Every
visit during his chemotherapy treatments
and his five-week radiation schedule, the
professional interactions, friendly conversations
and smiling faces that greeted Bill made a
positive difference.
BETTER TREATMENT. BETTER OUTCOMES.

Fun Run to raise funds for two
By Pat Maurer
Correspondent
Michael J’s Annual Fun
Run and an upcoming
bake sale at Jay’s Sporting
Goods will raise funds to
help two families this year.
Mike Bonomo, of Gladwin, heads up the organization, a 501 3C, to help
others in need. This is the
sixth year for the annual
fundraiser. He said, “Six
years ago, as I was turning
50, I decided that I wanted
to give back on my birthday, rather than to receive
gifts. Each year we select
someone from the local
area that is in need. We
invite my family, friends
and listeners to come
celebrate my birthday
by helping someone or a
family with help that they
need. After five years, we
have raised and donated
over $36,000.”
He is a former morning
show host on 98.5 UPA
and was even the recipient
of last year’s fundraiser.
A member of the Forgotten Eagles riders, he was
involved in a motorcycle
accident just over a year
ago and is still in recovery
and therapy. Ray Martin,
another Forgotten Eagle
and also a member of the
Michael J’s Annual Fun
Run organization, put
together last year’s fundraiser ‘Fun Run’ to help
Mike out with his medical
expenses.
This year Ray’s family
is one of the recipients.
Mike said, “Our motto is
‘Riding for You’, but this
year it will be ‘Riding for
2’.”
Ray Martin recently
lost his battle with lung
cancer. Mike said, “He
was an amazing person,
our friend, and a ‘Forgotten Eagle’. Ray is from
Beaverton and his family
is in need of some help
to pay for Ray’s final
expenses.”
The other recipient
is the grandson of another friend, ‘UPS Ed’ (Ed
Piglowski, of the West
Branch area.)
Mike said for the last
two decades, Ed has
donated winter wear to
needy children across a
two-county area. “Now
his own grandson Carter
Piglowski (#supercarter)
needs help. He has been
diagnosed with Acute
Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
We are raising money
to help Carter’s parents
as they struggle with the
daily challenges of childhood cancer.”
The bake sale at Jay’s
Sporting Goods will be
held on Saturday, August
13 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Mike said, “this year
‘We ride for 2’ to help
raise funds for these two
families for expenses and
medical bills and to support them as they have for
so many others.”
He said this year’s Fun
Run for motorcycles or
any vehicle will be on
Sunday, September 18,
with registration starting at
9 a.m. at the Juicy Bone in
Beaverton. The final stop
of the run will be at the
Camp Sports Bar on M30
in Gladwin. Along with
dinner there will be live
and silent auctions, armband sales and raffles. All
proceeds will go toward
the annual fundraiser for
the two families. The riders can also be sponsored.
Mike said, “Remember,
you just never know when
one of us may need the
help of our community.
I can personally attest to
that! If you want to help,
email michaeljfunrun@
gmail.com or call 989387-0916.”

at Farwell’s
Lumberjack
Festival
By Steve Landon
Correspondent
This young lady hits home plate in the skillet toss.
A Lumberjack performer sends his axe speeding to the
target.
Competition from four
county fairs less than 30
miles away in each direction left many wondering if
attendance would be down
at this year 16th Annual
Farwell Lumberjack Festival. Traditionally the twoday Festival has started
the weekend prior to the
beginning of the Clare
County Fair in Harrison.
This year the event kicked
off July 30th the final and
biggest day of the fair
leaving Sunday as the only
day free of competition.
Much to the delight of area
merchants and festival vendors business was above
average along with festival
attendance. Even overcast
skies and a few sprinkles
Saturday afternoon didn’t
put a damper on activities.
Things got underway on
Friday night with vendors
from as far away as Ohio
and Indiana setting of their
booths for the weekends
big craft show and sale in
the city park adjacent to
the historic Pere Marquette
Rail Trail. By Saturday
morning the park was
buzzing with activity as
some of the most talented
craftsmen and artist in the
country displayed and sold
many unique creations to
eager shoppers.
On the side of the rail
trail the large pavilion tent
filled with picnic tables
gave folks a place to visit
friends, grab a snack and
relax. Throughout the
weekend events like the
ever popular and entertaining greased pig competition, a 5K run, ladies rubber chicken throw, skillet
toss, pie eating contest,
horseshoe tournament kids
games, prize drawings and
more kept visitors active
and entertained.
In the carving arena
outside the Farwell Farmers Market chainsaw artists
gave new life to old trees
turning logs into stunning
works of art. A few steps
east the popular lumberjack show once again
entertained young and
old with their antics and
superb skills.

Another successful year for Clare County Fair
By Steve Landon
Veteran fair goers attending the 133rd Annual Clare
County Fair last week will
no doubt agree it was one of
the hottest in recent memory.
Temperature soared into the
90’s in the weeks leading
up to and throughout much
of fair week. In the animal
barns kids and adults worked
tirelessly to see to it all large
and small animals stayed cool
and hydrated. Thanks to their
efforts all of God’s creatures
came through in fine shape.
This year’s heat along with
competition from three other
area fairs had little effect on
attendance in fact the grounds
were just as packed as ever
especially in the evening.
The 2016 edition of the
Clare County Fair - one of
Michigan’s oldest continuous
county fairs - officially got
underway Monday July 25th
with large and small animal
participants settling in for a
long and very competitive
week. This year’s event saw
an increase in livestock entries in fact close to 300 pigs
were shown and auctioned
in Saturday’s large animal
sale. In the small animal barn
entries were up in part due
to the return of live poultry.
In 2015 the state agricultural
officials canceled all exhibits
of waterfowl and domestic
poultry because of avian flu
outbreak. Monday evening
closed out opening day with
a concert by popular singer
Kelsea Ballerini.
Screams and laughter once
again filled the midway as
young and old climbed aboard
some downright thrilling
rides for their annual adrenalin rush. In the merchants
buildings and display areas
businesses promoted and sold
their products. Grandstand

The Clare County Review - August 5, 2016 - Page 5B
Another successful year for Clare County Fair
Continued from page 3B
Racing, a figure 8 demolition derby, motocross, mud
bog, truck and tractor pulls
and an a rodeo were all well
attended.
Sadly 133rd annual fair in
now just a memory, however
in less a year the bright lights
will flash and rides will come
alive for the 134th Annual
Clare County Fair. Today the
grounds are silent waiting for
next year when the fun begins
again. In the weeks ahead
barns will become home to
boats and RV’s stored for the
winter while back in the fair
office officials will be hard
at work making plans for the
2017.

Clare County Fair visit

there is a fair. Riders displayed their skills in numerous events and showed to a
total of three judges. Points

The Clare County Review - August 5, 2016 - Page 7B
Clare MidMichigan Medical Center emphasizes patient safety
Employees at MidMichigan Health in Clare and
Gladwin are committed to
safety and quality care –
and it shows.
MidMichigan Medical
Center – Clare recently
earned an “A” in patient
safety from the Leapfrog
Group, a national patient
safety watchdog organization. The A grade award
came on the heels of
MidMichigan Health being
named one of the nation’s
15 Top Health Systems by
Truven Health Analytics.
While the recognition is
appreciated by the Medical
Center’s staff, the community is rewarded as well
said Ray Stover, president
of MidMichigan Medical
Centers in Clare and Gladwin. “The true beneficiaries are the patients. People
can feel confident knowing
that their local hospital in
Clare is truly one of the
best.” He said employees
are delighted with the
recognition. “They are a
proud group right now and
they should be. Patient
safety is deeply engrained
in how we work.”
It wasn’t always that
way, Stover admitted.
“Two or three years ago,
we did a safety survey and
identified areas where we
needed to focus our attention,” he said. “We looked
at where we were and
where we needed to be.”
Leadership at Clare then
implemented a number of
tactics designed to improve
communication and patient
safety. Out of the dozens
implemented, Stover said
two in particular, safety
rounds and morning briefings, made a big impact.
Safety rounds are
conducted by a small team
of senior management and
their goal is to listen and
respond to concerns and
suggestions. “Twice a year,
we visit the different departments and ask – among
other things – if they have
any safety concerns,” said
Glenn King, vice president
of MidMichigan Medical Centers in Clare and
Gladwin. “We want to
know what we’re doing
right and where we need to
improve.” When a problem
or concern is identified,
it’s noted and posted in a
public place. “We believe
in holding ourselves accountable so we keep the
notices visible until they’re
fixed. Our goal is have the
problem fixed by the next
department visit.”
As a result of safety
rounds, many issues
have been identified and
resolved. “Safety rounds
have also enhanced communication and helped
prevent issues,” Stover
added. “Even if an accident had not happened,
we can identify what could
happen and correct the
situation.” Safety rounds
helped employees realized
that a culture of safety is a
priority for everyone. “The
feedback loop -- proof of
correcting areas of concern
– helped build employees’
confidence in their leadership.”
Morning safety briefings, instituted in January,
were also designed to
improve communication
and safety. They start at
9:30 am every day, each
department is represented
and Gladwin employees
are present via video
conference. The goal is to
keep everyone informed
and to wrap up within 15
minutes.
“In the beginning,
things were slow and
people were less willing to
share,” King said. “Now
they know we are trying to
promote a culture of safety
and they open up more.
We’re not pointing out
errors, we’re just sharing
information with everyone
at the same time.”
“Now, the whole organization knows what’s going
on,” King added. “So far,
we have identified 70 issues that were addressed
and dealt with on the spot.”
The improvements in
safety and patient care
are obvious to those who
matter most, Stover said.
“When I first came to
Clare, the majority of the
feedback I received from
patients was negative
and now the majority is
positive. The team at Clare
is top notch. They want
every patient who leaves
our hospital to say that we
provided excellent care.”
“One of our goals is to
become a zero defect organization so we work on a
lot of best practices,”
King said. Toward that
end, he explained that
Left) Glenn King, vice president of MidMichigan Medical Centers in Clare and Gladwin,
and (right) Ray Stover, president of MidMichigan Medical Centers in Clare and Gladwin,
lead annual safety rounds and daily safety briefings.
MidMichigan Medical
Center – Clare participates
in the Hospital Engagement Networks, sponsored by the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid
Services, as well as other
organizations that focus on
sharing information among
participating hospitals.
King said they recently started a process to
develop a master facility plan. “We’re trying to
decide what Clare hospital
should look like five years
from now,” he said. “Will
the priorities shift to more
outreach and screening?
Will we have less inpatient and more outpatient
interaction?” While initial
recommendations for the
future are months away,
he said managers and staff
will be part of the discussion and planning.
“It’s been a great year
so far and we want to keep
moving forward,” King
said. “We are always looking to improve and not settle for the status quo. We
will continue to develop
stretch goals and continue
to hit those goals.”
